Geological Modelling
Modelling
A modelling solution were geology meets geophysics. GeoModeller refines its implicit 3D Models with geophysical data, such as Gravity, Magnetics and Full Tensor Gradiometry, through a joint stochastic modelling process.
Use structural data to constrain
Structural data such as contact points, bedding orientation and fold axes can be included.
Add Data
Add new data to refine the model in real-time
Honour Depth Observations
Honour depth observations by intergrating drillhole data
GeoModeller uses a geostatistical vector field interpolator to build the 3D interfaces and fault network using structural data, sections, drillholes and geophysics as inputs. The CoKriging interpolator allows the user to define formation-specific anisotropy settings to better represent geological structures even with sparse and scarce data. Model topology is set via the stratigraphic pile which enables the transfer of external geological knowledge into the modelling with minimal setup. Advanced fault network management enables realistic structurally complex modelling.
GeoModeller Key Features
• Set stratigraphic rules for your conceptual models, influenced by your geological and chronological sequences
• Manual and automatic well correlation
• Assign properties to each formation based on a probability distribution function to model with variation in density, susceptibility and velocity
• Calculate forward response from model of any potential field including gravity, magnetic,
gravity & magnetic tensor
• Correlate geology, AEM inversions, and depth and structure from Intrepid 3D’s Cauchy, WormE and other depth & interpretation tools
• Use powerful joint stochastic inversions to refine your base model
